Should crosstesting work?

Not exactly the same, but very similar ones.  Mostly like
this (from gdi32_crosstest generated, translated by me):

GDI32_CROSSTEST caused page fault
in module GDI32_CROSSTEST.EXE at address 014f:00455a49.

For user32 tests I get the same (an other address with
nearly the same byte sequence is constant for every test)
with the exception of the class test, which faults at a
different address.  Btw, this is the module I put a new test
in.  That faults like the majority does. :(

I will try to build these with MSVC 6, but I seldom has
access to a computer with that software, and the process
isn't much fun altogether (according to the Developers'
Manual, which is great, thanks, Francois!)
